Mopar Madness: Our Five Favorite Modified Mopar Creations at the 2012 SEMA Show

As usual, the SEMA show was a big deal for Chrysler's aftermarket arm Mopar. This year Mopar filled the floor with modified cars from each of Chrysler's brands: Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Ram, and yes, even SRT. These are our top five favorite Mopar-modified vehicles from the 2012 SEMA show.Project Ultraviolet Jeff Dunham Dodge Challenger SRT

The Project Ultraviolet Dodge Challenger SRT is a truly stunning machine. Built for comedian Jeff Dunham by Mopar, this Challenger SRT8 is all about presence and performance. Covering the presence part is the Ultraviolet Challenger's purple paint, matte black roof, hand-formed aluminum fender flares, and rear diffuser. Backing up the show is Mopar's new 426 Hemi V-8 crate engine running out of side pipes, which will reportedly be receiving new modifications pretty soon, because Dunham plans to use the car as it was intended – on the track.Dodge Charger Juiced

The guys at Mopar sure know the way to our hearts. Start a fun rear-drive platform -- in this case a Charger -- and then swap out the engine for a 650-hp Viper V-10. Thanks to the engine swap, lowered suspension, and burnt orange paint, the Charger Juiced is the muscle car-obsessed family man's dream sedan -- and ours as well.Fiat 500 Abarth Cafe Racer

Who knew chopping the roof could completely change how the Fiat 500 Abarth looks? Mopar wanted to give the 500 Abarth Cafe Racer a real classic hot rod look, and so it was designed to fit in at the Bonneville Salt Flats of the '50s and '60s. Mopar chopped off some of the roof, slammed it, gave it a polished aluminum appearance, and classic wheels. Inside, the 500 Abarth's interior was stripped, leaving nothing but retro-styled seats up front. Finishing off the 500 Abarth Cafe Racer's look is a side-exit exhaust, and a trailer with a cafe racer motorcycle on it.Jeep Wrangler Sand Trooper

The Jeep Wrangler Sand Trooper is the first concept built from Mopar's new portfolio of Wrangler parts. As expected, the Wrangler Sand Trooper is a hardcore off-roader. Mopar fitted a donor Wrangler Unlimited with Portal Axles, 8-lug beadlock wheels, 42-inch tires, and a full-length skidplate. Mopar then added its 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 crate engine into the mix, and sharpened up the exterior with a matte tan paintjob, Warn winches, LED off-road lights and more. Lastly, the Wrangler Sand Trooper's interior was re-done with Katzkin leather, locking storage, and a CB Radio because according to Mopar, Jeep guys love their CBs.SRT Viper Aero

It might only be lightly modified, but the SRT Viper Aero is a show stopper. Mopar fitted this Viper with its prototype aero package which adds 500 pounds of down force at top speed, thanks to the carbon fiber front dive planes, and carbon fiber rear spoiler. This Viper was also fitted with the ultra-lightweight wheels from the Viper's Track Pack, an adjustable coil over suspension, and a carbon fiber X-Brace in the engine bay – something SRT chief Ralph Gilles said was left off the stock Viper due to cost concerns. Rounding out the package were new Viper pieces from the Mopar catalog, including a six-point harness, a billet aluminum shift knob, and the new aluminum pedal kit.Check out the gallery below for more photos of our favorite Mopar vehicles at the 2012 SEMA show.
